Abstract
β-Glucosidase exists in all areas of living organisms, and microbial β-glucosidase has become the main source of its production because of its unique physicochemical properties and the advantages of high-yield production by fermentation. With the rise of the green circular economy, the production of enzymes through the fermentation of waste as the substrate has become a popular trend. Lignocellulosic biomass is an easily accessible and sustainable feedstock that exists in nature, and the production of biofuels from lignocellulosic biomass requires the involvement of β-glucosidase. This review proposes ways to improve β-glucosidase yield and catalytic efficiency. Optimization of growth conditions and purification strategies of enzymes can increase enzyme yield, and enzyme immobilization, genetic engineering, protein engineering, and whole-cell catalysis provide solutions to enhance the catalytic efficiency and activity of β-glucosidase. Besides, the diversified industrial applications, challenges and prospects of β-glucosidase are also described.

Madushanka A, Verma N, Freindorf M, Kraka E. Papaya Leaf Extracts as Potential Dengue Treatment: An In-Silico Study. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232012310. [PMID: 36293162 PMCID: PMC9610845 DOI: 10.3390/ijms232012310] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2022] [Revised: 10/04/2022] [Accepted: 10/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022] Open
Abstract
Dengue fever (DF), dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF), and dengue shock syndrome (DSS) cause serious public health problems, with nearly 390 million people affected and 20,000 deaths per year in tropical and subtropical countries. Despite numerous attempts, no antiviral drug or vaccine is currently available to combat the manifestation. The challenge of discovering an efficient vaccine is enhanced by the surplus presence of efficient vectors and drug resistance from the virus. For centuries, papaya (Carica papaya) extracts have been traditionally used to treat DF, DHF, and DSS. In the present study, we systematically investigated seven compounds isolated from papaya leaf extract with regard to their potential as inhibitors for non-structural (NS) proteins, NS3 and NS5, which play a crucial role in viral RNA replication. The computational tools applied stretched across classical molecular docking, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and SwissADME used to calculate binding affinities; binding free energies; Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, and Excretion (ADME); and drug-likeness properties, thus, identifying Kaempferol, Chlorogenic acid, and Quercetin as potential candidates, with Kaempferol and Quercetin scoring best. Therefore, for the Kaempferol and Quercetin complexes, hybrid quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical (QM/MM) geometry and frequency calculations were performed, followed by the local mode analysis developed in our group to quantify Kaempferol-NS and Quercetin-NS hydrogen bonding. Given the non-toxic nature and the wide availability of the Kaempferol and Quercetin papaya extract in almost all of the susceptible regions, and our results showing high NS3 and NS5 binding affinities and energies, strong hydrogen bonding with both NS3 and NS5, and excellent ADME properties, we suggest Kaempferol and Quercetin as a strong NS3 and NS5 inhibitor to be further investigated in vitro.

Abstract
The nonrenewable character and deleterious effects of fossil fuels foster the need for cleaner and more inexhaustible energy sources, such as bioethanol. Especially from lignocellulosic biomasses. However, the economic viability of this product in the market depends on process optimization and cost reduction. This research applied a sequential experimental project to investigate the process of enzymatic saccharification and simultaneous fermentation to produce ethanol with sugarcane bagasse. The differential of the work was the application of the strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae AGY001 which was improved by evolutionary engineering to become thermotolerant and by a heterologous expression based on genomic integration by CRISPR/Cas9 to produce endoglucanase and β-glucosidase (AsENDO-AsBGL). The maximum ethanol yield found was 89% of the maximum theoretical yield (released sugars), obtained at temperature concentrations, sugarcane bagasse and inoculum at 40 °C, 16.5%, and 4.0 g/L, respectively (12.5 FPU/g bagasse). The mathematical model obtained can predict approximately 83% of the data set with 95% confidence. Therefore, these findings demonstrated the potential of sugarcane bagasse and S. cerevisiae AGY001 strain (CRISPR/Cas9 modified) in bioethanol production without the need for impractical selection media on an industrial scale, in addition to providing useful insights for the development of SSF processes.

Electroactive reduced graphene oxide for highly sensitive detection of secretory non-structural 1 protein: A potential diagnostic biomarker for Japanese encephalitis virus. Biosens Bioelectron 2022; 198:113837. [PMID: 34864242 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2021.113837] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2021] [Revised: 11/11/2021] [Accepted: 11/24/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Fluorine Doped Tin Oxide (FTO) electrode was fabricated with reduced Graphene Oxide (rGO) for sensitive detection of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) non-structural 1 (NS1) protein. Beforehand, in-silico 3D structure, stability, and docking of recombinant JEV NS1 antigen (NS1-Ag) and antibody (Ab) was evaluated. The recombinant NS1 Ag of 42 kDa was produced in-house by successful cloning into pET-28a(+) plasmid and further expressed using BL21 Escherichia coli (E. coli) cells. The NS1 Ag was used to raise polyclonal antibodies (Ab) and both were characterized via Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), Western Blot, Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization-Time of Flight (MALDI-TOF), and Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). Further characterisation of all binding events such as rGO synthesis, and its conjugation with NS1 Ab, and NS1 Ag were confirmed through Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman Spectroscopy, Energy Dispersive X-Ray Analysis (EDX), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) and Differential Pulse Voltammetry (DPV). The fabricated FTO electrode was optimised for various parameters such as pH, response time, temperature, concentration, and scan rate. The detection of JEV NS1 Ag was performed in buffer (LOD- 0.92 fM) as well in spiked serum (LOD- 1.3 fM) samples. The JEV NS1 Ab showed negligible cross-reactivity with other flaviviral NS1 Ag, provided a rapid response within 5 s, and remained stable up to 4 weeks. Furthermore, the fabricated immunosensor may be a potential candidate for further miniaturisation for accurate and early diagnosis of JEV in clinical samples.

Abstract
Cellulases play a promising role in the bioconversion of renewable lignocellulosic biomass into fermentable sugars which are subsequently fermented to biofuels and other value-added chemicals. Besides biofuel industries, they are also in huge demand in textile, detergent, and paper and pulp industries. Low titres of cellulase production and processing are the main issues that contribute to high enzyme cost. The success of ethanol-based biorefinery depends on high production titres and the catalytic efficiency of cellulases functional at elevated temperatures with acid/alkali tolerance and the low cost. In view of their wider application in various industrial processes, stable cellulases that are active at elevated temperatures in the acidic-alkaline pH ranges, and organic solvents and salt tolerance would be useful. This review provides a recent update on the advances made in thermostable cellulases. Developments in their sources, characteristics and mechanisms are updated. Various methods such as rational design, directed evolution, synthetic & system biology and immobilization techniques adopted in evolving cellulases with ameliorated thermostability and characteristics are also discussed. The wide range of applications of thermostable cellulases in various industrial sectors is described.

Abstract
The enzyme β-glucosidase mediates the rate limiting step of conversion of cellobiose to glucose and thus plays a vital role in the process of cellulose degradation. The present study deals with analysis of the effective novel strain of Paenibacillus lautus BHU3 for identifying high-efficiency thermostable, glucose tolerant β-glucosidases. Seven counterparts with elevated Tm values ranging from 64.6 to 75.8 °C with high thermo-stability, were revealed through this analysis. The blind molecular docking of the model enzymes structures with cellobiose and pNPG gave high negative interaction energies ranging from -11.33 to -13.29 and -6.43 to -9.054 (kcal mol-1), respectively. The enzyme WP_096774744.1 effectively formed 5 hydrogen bonds with the highest interaction energy (-13.29 kcal mol-1) with cellobiose at its catalytic site. Molecular dynamics simulation analysis performed for the WP_096774744.1-pNPG complex predicted Glu5, Arg7, Lue68, Gly69 and Phe325 as the major contributing residues for accomplishing hydrolysis of β-1-4-linkage. Further, the molecular docking of WP_096774744.1 enzyme with glucose revealed a distinct glucose-binding site distant from the substrate-binding site, thus confirming the deficient competitive inhibition by glucose. Hence, WP_096774744.1 β-glucosidase appears to be an efficient enzyme with enhanced activity to biodegrade the cellulosic materials and highly relevant for waste management and various industrial applications.

Abstract
In the current study, deterrent assay, contact bioassay, lethal concentration (LC) analysis and gene expression analysis were performed to reveal the repellent or insecticidal potential of M. alternifolia oil against M. persicae. M. alternifolia oil demonstrated an excellent deterrence index (0.8) at 2 g/L after 48 h. The oil demonstrated a pronounced contact mortality rate (72%) at a dose of 4 g/L after 24 h. Probit analysis was performed to estimate LC-values of M. alternifolia oil (40%) against M. persicae (LC30 = 0.115 g/L and LC50 = 0.37 g/L respectively) after 24 h. Furthermore, to probe changes in gene expression due to M. alternifolia oil contact in M. persicae, the expression of HSP 60, FPPS I, OSD, TOL and ANT genes were examined at doses of LC30 and LC50. Four out of the five selected genes—OSD, ANT, HSP 60 and FPPS I—showed upregulation at LC50, whereas, TOL gene showed maximum upregulation expression at LC30. Finally, the major components of M. alternifolia oil (terpinen-4-ol) were docked and MD simulated into the related proteins of the selected genes to explore ligand–protein modes of interactions and changes in gene expression. The results show that M. alternifolia oil has remarkable insecticidal and deterrent effects and also has the ability to affect the reproduction and development in M. persicae by binding to proteins.
